What Is Mucor Miehei Extract?
Mucor Miehei Extract is derived from a type of fungus that produces natural enzymes. These enzymes can provide gentle exfoliation by breaking down the proteins that hold dead skin cells together.
This biotechnology-derived ingredient offers a controlled, mild approach to enzymatic exfoliation, suitable for sensitive skin that cannot tolerate harsher exfoliating methods.
